-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup dried unsweetened coconut
1 cup boiling water
1 Tablespoon peanut oil -- or vegetable oil
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 jalapeno chile pepper -- stemmed, seeded & deveined, or 1 dried red chile pepper
salt and freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
1 pound spinach -- washed trimmed
Place the coconut in a blender and cover it with 1 cup boiling water.
Cover the blender, and holding the top on with a folded towel to reduce
the possibilities of scalding, blend for 20 seconds or so. Let the mixture
sit for a few minutes, then strain, pressing to extract as much liquid as
possible.
Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the ginger
and garlic. Cook, stirring, until the garlic begins to color. Add the
coconut milk and the jalapeno or chile and bring to a boil; lower the
heat, add salt and pepper, and taste. Chop the spinach coarsely and simmer
it in the liquid about five minutes. Raise the heat to high and boil off
any excess liquid, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.
